Strategic Priority #1
Chadwick's Strategic Plan: An Overview
In April 2022, Chadwick launched a comprehensive strategic planning process, which will culminate with the development of the school’s next strategic plan. The strategic priorities were developed through an inclusive process that involved voices from across our community and included an extended period of reflection and learning. The Roessler-Chadwick Foundation (RCF) Board of Trustees approved the resulting strategic priorities in June 2023. The strategic priorities will guide Chadwick School for several years.
Current Strategic Priorities
By 2028, Chadwick School will stand as a model of an educational community that:
1) Commits to Leading
2) Values Community Wellness
3) Prioritizes Institutional Sustainability
4) Ensures an Accessible Experience
These four strategic priorities support our Mission and are designed to empower young people to discover their passions through transformative and cross-cultural experiences and to prepare them to lead and serve in an ever-evolving world.
We will ensure that Chadwick School stands as a leader in educational innovation in the following ways: by developing, supporting and retaining exceptional educational professionals, by extending thought leadership through best-in-class professional development experiences open to all educators and staff, and by creating extraordinary learning environments, creating integrative K-12 student pathways and K-12 signature programs in global citizenship, leadership and emerging technologies.

Strategic Planning Committee

These individuals represented trustees, administrators, faculty, staff, parents, alumni and students who worked together under the guidance of the RCF Board to lead our strategic planning process. They brought a variety of skills, backgrounds and perspectives to our work, which they undertook on behalf of, and through the inclusion of, the entire Chadwick community.
